Benefit cosmetic fans!

Ok, I LOVE benefit cosmetics, but they're so expensive.
If you go to the american Benefit site - www.benefitcosmetics.com and look in the buh bye section under 'surprise me' there is a gift set of three items. These three items add up to over £50 on the UK site but are only £17 on here. They're all full size items (I checked sizes against the UK prices) Shipping is only £3.75 AND you get 2 free samples with every order and 10% off your first order with code HEYTHERE.
Go and check it out Benefit fans!!

As far as I know goods aren't taxed if they are classed as gifts or valued under a certain amount.

Hi. Many thanks for this. I take it the gift set was the one with the mascara so I have ordered this and added one of the lovely shower caps which are so expensive here. My order confirmation page said that my order contained a 'Hazmat' item so I could only get standard delivery but the total still works out at only £26.14 so I went ahead. Thanks too for the discount code OP. A great find!! :T
